First, I define leadership explicitly. One definition of leadership is a person who helps people reach a shared goal. Then, I explain some of the goals of a leader. For example, one goal of all leaders is fundraising. After all, no library can exist without funding. Next, the qualities or characteristics of a leader are discussed. For example, a great leader must have self-confidence and perseverance. Lastly, I explain the difference between a leader and a manager. For example, a leader focuses on the long-term (big picture), while a manager focuses on the short-term (details).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Excerpt<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a paper that I wrote about library leadership that describes the definition of leadership, the goals of a leader, the qualities or characteristics of a leader, and the difference between a leader and a manager.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you would like to read my full paper, then please click on the link below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/05\/Library-Leadership-Paper.docx\">Library Leadership Paper<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a paper that I wrote about library leadership that describes the definition of leadership, qualities of a leader, goals of a leader, and the difference between a leader and a manager.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":60,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[167],"tags":[198,199,200,201,202],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-3297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-167","tag-characteristics-of-leaders","tag-definition-of-leadership","tag-goals-of-a-leader","tag-leadership","tag-leadership-vs-management"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/60"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3297"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3297\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3297"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=3297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
